    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Humans turned into Minimoys have five fingers, real Minimoys have four (as all other speaking species seen), and the King's mount, only three.
    • Goofs
      (at around 1h 20 mins) While driving in the tunnel Arthur says he hopes that there are no speed cameras down there, but speed cameras weren't introduced until at least the late 1960s.
    • Quotes

      [repeated line]

      Arthur: It's incredible!

    • Crazy credits
      At the beginning of the end credits, the main actors, actresses, and director come out on screen to take their final bows. If they did a voice in the film, they are presented as the character they voiced in the film. If their role was strictly live action, they are presented as a Minimoy version of their character.
    • Alternate versions
      Weinstein's 94 minute USA/UK version is renamed "Arthur and the Invisibles" and is heavily cut and rearranged from the original 103 minute French/English language version named "Arthur et les Minimoys":
      • The romance, kiss and marriage between Arthur and Selenia is cut.
      • All sexual innuendo is cut.
      • Davido's attempt to steal the rubies is cut.
      • Some live shots are cut, some other added.
      • Has more verbose speech.
      • Narrator voice added (in addition to Archibald).
    • Connections
      Edited into Arthur 3: The War of the Two Worlds (2010)

    Surprisingly nice
    I went to see this movie because of my wife. She read the books some time ago and really wanted to see the movie. I am not too fond of animations.

    I was pleasantly surprised. I liked the story a lot. It was really nice to see something new for a change. There are not too many clichés in it, and the little acting that is in the movie is quite good.

    I was a bit disappointed by the animations. I think they could have been a bit better. But then again, as I said I am not the biggest animation fan.

    Parting comments: It's a movie for the family. There should be something in it for every age.
